L-Glutamate (Glutamic Acid): a nonessential amino acid that is
used by the body to build proteins. Evidence suggests that glutamate may have a protective effect on the heart muscle, may play a role in the normal functioning of the prostate gland.
L-Glycine: a nonessential amino acid that can serve as a source of nitrogen for the manufacturing of other amino acids, plays a role in the synthesis of hemoglobin, glutathione, DNA, and RNA. Required for the maintenance of the central nervous system. Enhances
memory and cognitive function, required for the normal functioning of the prostate gland.
L-Methionine: an essential amino acid that the body uses to manufacture creatine, the body
uses the sulfur in methionine for normal growth and metabolism, promotes the physiological breakdown of fat, prevents the accumulation of fat in the liver and arteries.
L-Threonine: an essential amino acid that is an important constituent of collagen, elastin, and tooth enamel, helps prevent fat build-up in the liver, helps the digestive and intestinal tracts function more smoothly, assists metabolism, helps to stabilize blood sugar.
Cysteine (N-Acetyl Cysteine, NAC): a nonessential amino acid that helps the body to make the antioxidant enzyme glutathione; may help to decrease the effects of aging, protect against
heart disease and cancer, boost the immune system, aid healing, improve the production of muscle tissue, promote fat metabolism, enhance hair growth, and prevent hair loss.
L-Tryptophan: an essential amino acid that boosts the release of growth hormones, helps to suppress the appetite, required for the production of niacin, is associated with serotonin and melatonin production, helps alleviate insomnia by inducing normal sleep and reducing anxiety and depression.
L-Proline: a nonessential amino acid that enhances fat metabolism and is involved in the production of collagen, connective tissue, and cartilage; may help support healthy joints and a healthy musculoskeletal system.
L-Tyrosine: an amino acid that is the building block for several important brain chemicals (neurotransmitters), may aid in conditions where mental function is impaired or slowed.
L-Aspartic Acid (Aspartate): an amino acid that aids in the expulsion of harmful ammonia from the body, may increase resistance to fatigue and increase endurance. that plays a key role in the biosynthesis of other amino acids and some neurotransmitters, is converted into L-DOPA, which is further converted into dopamine, norepinephrine, and epinephrine. |
